Citywide CDC eyes razing Lincoln Garfield school for blight plan
The Citywide Development Corporation formalized a plan to take ownership of the former Lincoln Garfield Elementary School at 301 E Long Ave, raze it, clean the site, and redevelop with final say on future use. The move aims to leverage county cooperation and secure funding by proving project execution capability. The building has sat vacant since 1988 after locals cited ongoing code violations. The plan depends on cooperation with Lawrence County commissioners to transfer control and address blight near nearby businesses and residences. The amendment text follows the main report.
